Interface ISerializer

All Known Implementing Classes:

Serializer, Serializer

public interface ISerializer

Using a grammar, the Serializer converts EMF models to text. This is inverse to the parser converting text into EMF models. For reasons of backwards compatibility, this interface is still bound to Serializer. It is recommended to bind it to Serializer in the runtime module of your language.
